I was curious how Klay does with Steph off the court.  Interestingly. this year, the 3 point % was basically the same (assuming I am doing this correctly, Klay shot 42.6% with Steph off the court and 42.4% with Steph off the court on basically the same volume).  That really surprises me and definitely makes me think more of Klay than I did before I looked that up.

I think maybe a tad of an oversell of the greatest shooter of all time thing though; Steph shoots a lot more and still makes a better %, but your point is taken.  But yes, I think Green is better.  He's an incredibly versatile defender and makes a lot of their small lineups, which is really where they kill people, go.

Last season, Klay shot 44.5% from 3 with Steph on the court, and 40.9% with him off.  The year prior 41.9% and 40.3%.  Those numbers make more sense to me, so I'm going to believe them.  He's a great shooter either way, don't get me wrong.

I'm trying to figure out a good comp for Green.  He's not quite this good, but I think his game is similar to Scottie Pippen as far as his versatility goes.  or like Dennis Rodman circa 1990 with a better offensive game? Such a unique player
